"On both sides of the Dnieper River, the swamp is quite muddy. Our wheeled infantry combat vehicles are not suitable for passing in the swamp." "Fortunately, we summed up our combat experience in France early and developed a new tracked infantry combat vehicle. Now, those troops equipped with tracked infantry combat vehicles can keep up with the progress of tank forces," ketter said

If you want to fight Smolensk, you also have to cross the Dnieper River or its tributaries. In these basins, the Soviets carried out large-scale destruction.

All bridges were blown up and defended everywhere. The German army could only find weak positions to attack. However, the swamp along the Dnieper River was simply the natural enemy of wheeled infantry combat vehicles.

At the beginning of the war, Germany used wheeled infantry combat vehicles in order to reduce procurement costs and facilitate large-scale equipment. At the beginning of the war, it enabled the German army to quickly realize mechanization, accompanied by tank forces.

However, in France, the wheeled infantry combat vehicle fell into the swamp while moving forward, which revealed the huge defects of the wheeled infantry combat vehicle. It can't move forward in the swamp, and the crawler is the king there.

Shrek nodded: "yes, the traffic situation in the Soviet Union is quite bad. We must have enough psychological preparation. Of course, there are also plans to improve the mobility of our wheeled infantry combat vehicles. I have informed the relevant departments in advance. I don't know how they are going."

With that, xierik turned his head and looked at Speer, who was in charge of equipment. Speer nodded: "head of xierik, the prototype car has been delivered. When you have time, you can go out and have a look."

In fact, this kind of equipment has been transported for several days, but xierik is busy watching the war every day. He won't put forward too many opinions and interfere with the command of on-site officers. He only puts forward directional strategies, such as mobilizing the Middle Route Army to go south to Kiev.

Now, hearing that the prototype car had been delivered, hilrick was immediately happy: "let's go and have a look!"

Out of the wolf's den, just a few kilometers away by the river, hilrick saw the unique equipment.

This is an improvement on the wheeled infantry combat vehicle. It can be said that as long as there are additional accessories, the wheeled infantry combat vehicle can be improved to what it is now.

This kind of equipment simply subverts everyone's understanding. Those who see it for the first time can't help shouting: "what's that? Monsters? "

The eight thick off-road tires on both sides of the car were all removed, but the car didn't sit directly on the ground. Under it, there were two huge screws!

The diameter of the screw is at least one and a half meters. The front is pointed. The screw looks like a knife. It is so tough and shining. Two large screws on both sides support the car.

From the side, it looks like this infantry chariot is riding on two big bombs. The front and rear of the bomb are connected with the chassis of the infantry chariot through strong steel eight shaped shelves.

At the tail, the original propeller of the infantry combat vehicle used to paddle was removed and connected with the two large screws through the transmission shaft.

Franz Xavier remz, an outstanding engineer of Volkswagen, was looking excitedly at the senior officials coming.

"Head of state Chirac, since we received your hand-painted sketch, we immediately carried out research and found that your idea is really great. We soon built this spiral propulsion vehicle according to your idea. With only a small improvement, it can be installed on our current wheeled infantry combat vehicle. "

Head of state Chirac is simply a genius. Anyone who has contacted head of state Chirac will sincerely sigh. Especially in the field of engineering, head of state Chirac's every idea is so admirable.

Ordinary vehicles move forward by tires. The contact area between tires and the ground is small and the resistance is small, so they consume less fuel and have high speed, but their ability to get out of trouble on muddy roads is very poor.

The crawler type has good off-road ability, but it has high fuel consumption and slow speed.

This kind of spiral propulsion vehicle is a simple and rapid means of improvement. Moreover, its action ability on muddy roads is stronger than that of tracked vehicles. It is naturally prepared for extreme places.

Swamp, ice, hills, jungle, snow, these places are its stage!

"Go, go up!" Xierik said to the people around him. Just when the others were stunned, xierik had slipped into the infantry combat vehicle from behind, and then exposed half of his body from the turret.

Guard commander Graf followed him and saw Shrek go up, and the others went in one after another.

Franz happily got into the cab and said to the people behind him, "now, everyone, our journey is about to begin!"

"Buzz, buzz." With the roar of the diesel engine and the unique clatter of the high-pressure oil pump, Fran engaged the water driving gear for the first time, and then slowly released the clutch.

Below, two huge cylindrical screws rotate, the threads on the screws push the soil backward, and the car body begins to move forward.

The speed is not very fast, but it is absolutely stable. Keitel sitting in the back saw two deep gullies behind his own vehicle, more than half a meter deep!

The car continued to drive forward until it reached the river. The mud almost submerged the whole screw, but the car was still moving smoothly.

"Our lower screw is hollow and has enough buoyancy. In addition, our car has the ability of floating, so this screw car can drive directly to the river and then cross the river."

Then, the car floated up. On the water, relying on the thrust of the screw, it began to move forward. The car made a rumbling sound. Everyone present had joy in their eyes. It was the right time!

The swamp of Dnieper River is just suitable for this vehicle. Let the Soviets taste their own secret weapons!

The transformation is simple. As long as the screw, bracket and transmission shaft connected with the propeller are connected, the transformation is completed. The driving is also simple and there is no need to train.

This is simply tailored to the special zone of the Soviet Union.

"However, it is not suitable for solid roads. If it is on the normal ground, it will soon grind the threads flat and seriously damage the ground." At this point, the car began to drive back, and Franz continued to introduce its shortcomings.

"This is not a problem. After returning to the solid road, continue to change the tires. It just needs special vehicles to transport these screws." Said Shrek.

"Fuhrer, we still need one more weapon in our army. I wonder if you have any ideas. " Sherner said.
